Just don't ask them right now. They are too young to give a thoughtful answer. <br /><br />I asked my girls recently why they loved being my kids. Of course being the self proclaimed "Queen of Fun" I thought they might mention the fun times we've had: chasing rainbows, visiting every children's museum we could get to, spending days swimming in pools, at beaches, or in creeks, spontaneous half day pick ups from school to go on one adventure or another. The answer they gave me...."You cook us dinner." "Anything else?", I asked. "Ummmm.....and you love us."<br /><br />Again , I caution, don't ask them just yet.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18398531448297304908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2959409972754524769.post-26632380135875399182010-03-15T09:44:09.951-04:002010-03-15T09:44:09.951-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18398531448297304908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2959409972754524769.post-8486844716496448252010-03-14T11:00:58.457-04:002010-03-14T11:00:58.457-04:00They will remember it all and will love you more f...They will remember it all and will love you more for knowing you were and are a real person with real emotions and feelings, and for allowing them to share in them with you. <br /><br />I sometimes think how lucky my daughter is that she will have a lot of memories of me laughing when I have so few, almost none, of my mother laughing. Your kids are blessed to have a mom with patience, no matter how much or how little, who is strong and can laugh at life's challenges. Joy in life is a choice, Kim, and it seems to me you are making the right one.Kathiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00522225078478422367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2959409972754524769.post-42701410129132255022010-03-12T11:53:51.013-05:002010-03-12T11:53:51.013-05:00Every Mom asks these questions!Every Mom asks these questions!Michelle Thurgoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06842446689371853197noreply@blogger.com
